We consider a function $f:\mathbb{R} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ for which there exist a differentiable function $g : \mathbb{R} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ and exist a sequence $(a_n)_{n \geq 1}$ of real positive numbers, convergent to $0,$ such that
\[
g'(x) = \lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{f(x + a_n) - f(x)}{a_n}, \forall x \in \mathbb{R}.
\]

On a table, there are $11$ piles of ten stones each. Pete and Basil play the following game. In turns they take $1, 2$ or $3$ stones at a time: Pete takes stones from any single pile while Basil takes stones from different piles but no more than one from each. Pete moves first. The player who cannot move, loses. Which of the players, Pete or Basil, has a winning strategy?

Let’s consider three pairwise non-parallel straight constant lines in the plane. Three points are moving along these lines with different nonzero velocities, one on each line (we consider the movement to have taken place for infinite time and continue infinitely in the future). Is it possible to determine these straight lines, the velocities of each moving point and their positions at some “zero” moment in such a way that the points never were, are or will be collinear?

Given the positive real numbers $a_{1},a_{2},\dots,a_{n},$ such that $n>2$ and $a_{1}+a_{2}+\dots+a_{n}=1,$ prove that the inequality
\[
\frac{a_{2}\cdot a_{3}\cdot\dots\cdot a_{n}}{a_{1}+n-2}+\frac{a_{1}\cdot a_{3}\cdot\dots\cdot a_{n}}{a_{2}+n-2}+\dots+\frac{a_{1}\cdot a_{2}\cdot\dots\cdot a_{n-1}}{a_{n}+n-2}\leq\frac{1}{\left(n-1\right)^{2}}\]

Before The World Cup tournament, the football coach of $F$ country will let seven players, $A_1, A_2, \ldots, A_7$, join three training matches (90 minutes each) in order to assess them. Suppose, at any moment during a match, one and only one of them enters the field, and the total time (which is measured in minutes) on the field for each one of $A_1, A_2, A_3$, and $A_4$ is divisible by $7$ and the total time for each of $A_5, A_6$, and $A_7$ is divisible by $13$. If there is no restriction about the number of substitutions of players during each match, then how many possible cases are there within the total time for every player on the field?

Let $x_1,x_2,...,x_k$ be a sequence of integers. A rearrangement of this sequence (the numbers in the sequence listed in some other order) is called a [b]scramble[/b] if no number in the new sequence is equal to the number originally in its location. For example, if the original sequence is $1,3,3,5$ then $3,5,1,3$ is a scramble, but $3,3,1,5$ is not.
A rearrangement is called a [b]two-two[/b] if exactly two of the numbers in the new sequence are each exactly two more than the numbers that originally occupied those locations. For example, $3,5,1,3$ is a two-two of the sequence $1,3,3,5$ (the first two values $3$ and $5$ of the new sequence are exactly two more than their original values $1$ and $3$).
Let $n\geq 2$. Prove that the number of scrambles of $1,1,2,3,...,n-1,n$ is equal to the number of two-twos of $1,2,3,...,n,n+1$.
(Notice that both sequences have $n+1$ numbers, but the first one contains two 1s.)
